Wright: I’ll be a house daddy

EXCITED: Matthew MATTHEW Wright has said he can imagine himself being a stay-at-home dad when he and his wife welcome their much longed-for baby after eight years of trying.

The 53-year-old broadcaster and his wife Amelia, 42, recently revealed they are expecting a daughter after their final attempt at IVF succeeded.

Wright, who stood down from his Channel 5 talk show The Wright Stuff in June after 18 years, said: “I’m excited and terrified.

“I’ve only ever held two babies in my entire life!

“Now I can envisage becoming the primary carer when Amelia returns to work.”

He described their latest IVF treatment as “our final roll of the dice” and said they had “waited a long time for this moment”.

Wright, who now hosts a show on Talkradio, added: “Every day we keep pinching ourselves because we can hardly believe it’s finally happening.”

The couple, who wed in 2010, tried to have children several times after Amelia, a record company executive, had an ectopic pregnancy in 2009 having fallen pregnant with twins.
